FRANCK OLIVIER BLUE TOUCH - AQUA DI GIO CLONE (LASTS LONGER) (opens in a new tab)This one is just BETTER than ADG. The melon touch gives it a brighter and more acuatic vibe than the original. The longevity has changed since it’s launch, about 3-6 hours now, but for that price it still worth it!

FRANCK OLIVIER BLUE TOUCH - AQUA DI GIO CLONE (LASTS LONGER) (opens in a new tab)OK this is the best ADG Clone in my opinion due to it coming so close to the DNA and also lasting longer than the current Aqua Di Gio formulation. Costs about $20.

FRANCK OLIVIER BLUE TOUCH - AQUA DI GIO CLONE (LASTS LONGER) (opens in a new tab)Weak performance. Wearing it everyday nowadays and despite 50 sprays hardly any protection. After 2 hours it is hardly a skin scent.

FRANCK OLIVIER BLUE TOUCH - AQUA DI GIO CLONE (LASTS LONGER) (opens in a new tab)Nice fragrance and it is a classic but why spend the money when you can get a comparable scent?
